Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase had his status on the injury report changed on Saturday while the team made a roster move at the position.
There, the Bengals updated Chase to “questionable” due to an illness.
Fast forward to Sunday morning before kickoff against the New England Patriots, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler wrote the following on social media: “Ja’Marr Chase (questionable, illness) woke up ill Saturday but felt better later in the day, and the Bengals have had him in the game plan this week, per source. That can be adjusted if he sits, but those are a few encouraging signs.”
The change to Chase’s status on the injury report came just one day after he told reporters that while he might play without a contract extension, he would perhaps only do so in a limited role.
At least as of this writing, Chase and the Bengals remain embroiled in a contract standoff as he seeks a market-resetting extension.
Complicating matters for the Bengals, at least on the field itself, is another hamstring injury for Tee Higgins, who is now doubtful to play on Sunday. At this stage, if Chase is even active, he projects to be on a limited snap count.
